Supernova Remnants, Synchrotron Emission
Scientific paper
A possibility to model the high energy synchrotron emission (in X- and gamma-rays) from supernova remnants (SNRs) is an important task for modern astronomy and astrophysics because it may be responsible for the nonthermal X-rays and TeV gamma-rays observed recently from a number of SNRs. This emission allows us to observe the processes of particle acceleration on SNR shocks and generation of cosmic rays. In this paper a model for the synchrotron emission from shell SNR in nonuniform interstellar medium and nonuniform magnetic field is presented. This model is a generalization of the model of Reynolds & Chevalier developed for a spherical SNR in the uniform medium and uniform magnetic field. The model will be used for studies on the thermal and nonthermal images and spectra from nonspherical SNRs in different interstellar magnetic field configurations.
